Popular Post fritzzz25 Posted November 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2014 Somyot is the most corrupt of them all. Show me any other police officer that has the kind of money he has to "invest" in the stock market like he recently did. These people are a disgrace. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) I wonder how they selected just these corrupt cops for a purge and left all the others standing. Were they negligent in passing a tythe up the pipe or was it political or both? I suppose they are familiar with police interrogation techniques and know that the most painless approach is to sign the confession without fuss and retract it later, claiming it was extracted under torture.

Leave him, her, alone JOC apparently he has inside information as to exactly who was appointed by the Thaksin clone Govt. We see now that those who he tells us were appointed by said administration are extremely corrupt which only goes to show that those who appointed them support corruption. But we knew that for did they not cut the budgets of the anti-corruption agencies and attempt to have 25,000 plus cases of corruption forgiven by their amnesty bill. Which incidentally would have covered and forgiven those that have now been exposed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post heybruce Posted November 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Any legitimate corruption bust is a good thing, but I'm still waiting for: 1. Laws mandating transparency in government spending, including the military (excluding very limited, legitimate classified programs). 2. Laws mandating open competitive bidding on all government contracts, including military contracts. 3. Strict, and strictly enforced, laws against conflicts of interest for all government people, including those in the military. 4. Regular assets disclosures, including sources of wealth, for all government people, including those in the military. 5. Relaxation of libel and slander laws so the press can fulfill its proper function and report verifiable facts, even facts that embarrass the rich and powerful, without fear of retribution. Even though I oppose military government, I will applaud any government that brings about these changes. However I'm not holding my breath.
